Great room - eclectic dark wood floor and brown floor great room idea in San Francisco with white walls and no fireplace

This house is sited on the steep, north facing slope of Snow King Mountain. The main living spaces are located on the top level to take advantage of the sweeping views of the Tetons and National Elk Refuge. Arrival at this top level is through a stair atrium generously illuminated with skylights, which filter daylight throughout the interior – critical to a site deep in the trees with no direct sun during the winter months.

The pebble shower flooring provides texture and visual interest while the bathroom counter and polished concrete floor are kept simple and elegant to balance the composition. The full height window and shower door frame the beautiful view and small atrium. The pebble floor material continues outward to establish a rhythm amid the exterior weathered wood tiles, connecting the two spaces.

Inspiration for a mid-sized coastal wooden curved staircase remodel in Santa Barbara with wooden risers

Full gut renovation and facade restoration of an historic 1850s wood-frame townhouse. The current owners found the building as a decaying, vacant SRO (single room occupancy) dwelling with approximately 9 rooming units. The building has been converted to a two-family house with an owner’s triplex over a garden-level rental. Due to the fact that the very little of the existing structure was serviceable and the change of occupancy necessitated major layout changes, nC2 was able to propose an especially creative and unconventional design for the triplex. This design centers around a continuous 2-run stair which connects the main living space on the parlor level to a family room on the second floor and, finally, to a studio space on the third, thus linking all of the public and semi-public spaces with a single architectural element. This scheme is further enhanced through the use of a wood-slat screen wall which functions as a guardrail for the stair as well as a light-filtering element tying all of the floors together, as well its culmination in a 5’ x 25’ skylight.

New atrium: The pyramidal ceiling allows for maximal reflectance and directs light off canted walls to reduce glare at the edges of the skylight shaft. The atrium separates the house from the street. It allowed installation of glass doors that help to naturally illuminate the formerly gloomy front hallway. Photo by Benny Chan/Fotoworks
